I
would say that the difference between libertarian and anarchist utopias
is that the latter are more inclusive and libertarian ones more
exclusive.
Anarchist utopias, although they can end up being restrictive
too, at least tend to be based on the idea
that eventually they will include the whole society, all the people.
Everybody will be an anarchist living in an anarchistic society.
The
libertarians tend to have visions of a supposedly libertarian society
where in fact only a minority are libertarians and everybody else has to
live based on their rules without being admitted to the ranks of the
libertarians.
Just like in a bourgeois capitalistic society, the success
of the social model demands that most people can't achieve the
society's ideal. So, between leftwing and rightwing utopian visions we
have the basic left/right divide.
